Software-wise, almost all Kindles currently supported (PW2 and later, I suppose) share the same set of 'basic' features (firmware versions are the same, except for processor-specific goodies like inverse-color on PW4, e.g.).
As for 'shipping software', I'm not sure about PW3 anymore, but PW4 might come with 'not yet jailbreakable' revision (yet).

You can try and ask guys in the Kindle review section on Amazon, sorting by the recent date first.


As for "custom" FW, it is not always possible depending on your needs. E.g. I don't know to manually add the read/unread sorting feature.

Usually customs add-ons provide something that no stock FW can give to you, like LibrariaSync for easier collections management.
